Does the MaxxFan Deluxe work in rain?

The built-in rain shield lets it run during light rain without a separate cover. In heavy rain the lid should still be closed.

Can it run while driving?

Yes. The locking knob holds the lid in the open or closed position, so the fan can run on the road.

What is the difference between the manual and remote versions?

Both share the 10-speed fan, thermostat and reversible airflow. The manual version opens the lid with a knob; the remote version adds a powered lid and remote control.

Can it be used with the lid closed?

Yes. With the lid shut it works as a ceiling fan to circulate air inside the RV.

What size opening does it need?

It fits a standard 14 x 14 inch RV roof opening and includes the fan, lid, screen and mounting hardware.

Does it have a rain sensor?

No. The design relies on the built-in shield rather than a sensor, so there is nothing to trigger or fail.

About the MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe 10-Speed Roof Fan

The MaxxFan Deluxe is an RV roof vent that combines a 10-speed fan and a built-in rain cover in one unit. It is available in manual-opening and powered-opening versions. The lid comes in smoke or white.

The vent design allows the fan to run during light rain, and no rain sensor is needed. The locking knob keeps the lid secure in the open or closed position, so the vent can operate while driving. With the lid closed, the fan works as a ceiling fan to circulate air.

A flush-mount keypad controls fan speed, thermostat, air intake and exhaust. Airflow is reversible, so the fan can bring in fresh air or expel hot, stale air. The manual version opens with a knob. The powered version has a motorized lid operated by a handheld remote.
